Another
low key week for Ron. But despite the
loss of his Ronglish certificate,
Tangoman did unleash a few moments
of
unlicenced Ronglish this week.
The Arsenal-Mallorca game saw Ron
go back to basics with a pair of
Ronglish staples.
"Novo
has felt the full weight of
Vieira's reducer there."
"If
Campbell had been in the Wide
Awake Club, he wouldn't have had
to scrap there."
There was also the reappearance of
two little-known phrases from the
soon-to-be-published Ronglish
glossary.
Gulley: A mythical land
of much prosperity situated
between the centre halves and
fullback. Much fortune and favour
will be heaped on he who
"knocks one into the gulley
for the little frontman to
chase".
Outstrength:
A word entirely of Ron's own
making that praises the
achievements of the victor in any
physical tussle. i.e Henry's
outstrength him there.
On Tuesday night, Ron was too
worried about United's failure to
make a breakthrough against the
Greeks to have much time for
Ronglish. However, his frustration
eventually got the better of him
after on the Red's dozy frontmen
wandered offside again.
"Surely the linesman's got
to let one of these offsides
go."
However, Ron's best performance
this week was saved for his
GuardianUnlimited column.
Witness this gem;
"In
that sense Henry and Van
Nistelrooy would be a brilliant
match. If you put those two
together you would only need five
other players - a goalkeeper, a
back two and a couple in midfield
- and you'd win everything. It
might be banned under the Cruelty
to Defenders Act."
